Homeward Bound: Bondi Beach




After about two weeks of searching, I finally found an apartment near the beach!

In just three days I will be moving into a 3 bedroom flat in Bondi with an Aussie girl and a German girl. We have already nicknamed our apartment the "flat of lonely souls" as all three of our boyfriends live in different countries. Lets just say there will be heaps of Skyping in this apartment!

It is about a 20 minute walk from Bondi Junction train station, but only about an 8 minute walk to the beach. The flat is eclectically designed (the couple whos room I am taking over are artists, one in photography the other does video production) from the moment I walked in it instantly felt like home, perhaps in part because of the resemblance to the wall color selection at la casa de John McEachron. Dad would love this place as not only do they share his love of bold color, but they also share his love of odd antique furniture (you know the type, the things that most of us dont see the beauty in until they are restored, but they recognize right away)

Once I saw the old restored china cabinet and the dark maroon bathroom I knew this was home.

Plus look at what is just down the road!? The beautiful Bondi Beach!
